Bowl Streaker!

I have enjoyed millions of rounds of 21. I started sneaking into the casinos when I was still underage. I have wagered on online twenty-one, I have counted cards, and worked with a team for a short while. Given all that I have still spent all kinds of money at 21. The gambling halls have made it very hard to defeat the game.

I still enjoy the game and play on a frequent basis. Over this time period I have played a variation of blackjack called "The Take it Leave it Method". You will not get loaded with this tactic or defeat the casino, still you will experience a lot of fun. This tactic is built on the fact that 21 seems to be a game of streaks. When you’re hot your hot, and when you are not you’re NOT!

I play basic strategy chemin de fer. When I don’t win I wager the lowest amount allowed on the successive hand. If I don’t win again I bet the lowest amount allowed on the next hand again etc. As soon as I win I take the winnings paid to me and I bet the original wager again. If I win this hand I then leave the winnings paid to me and now have double my original wager on the table. If I succeed again I take the payout paid to me, and if I succeed the next hand I leave it for a total of four times my original bet. I continue betting this way "Take it Leave it etc". Once I don’t win I return the bet back down to the original value.

I am very disciplined and never "chicken out". It gets extremely fun sometimes. If you win a few hands in a row your bets go up very quickly. Before you know it you are wagering $100-200per hand. I have had great runs a couple of times now. I left a $5 table at the Wynn a number of years ago with $750 after 30 minutes using this technique! And a couple of weeks ago in Sin City I left a game with $1200!

You must understand that you can give away a great deal faster this way too!. But it really makes the game more thrilling. And you will be surprised at the streaks you see playing this way. Below is a chart of what you would wager if you kept winning at a 5 dollar game.

Bet $5
Take 5 dollar paid to you, leave the initial 5 dollar wager

Wager $5
Leave five dollar paid to you for a total wager of 10 dollar

Wager ten dollar
Take ten dollar paid to you, leave the original ten dollar wager

Bet ten dollar
Leave ten dollar paid to you for a total bet of twenty dollar

Bet $20
Take twenty dollar paid-out to you, leave the original $20 wager

Bet twenty dollar
Leave 20 dollar paid-out to you for a total bet of forty dollar

Wager forty dollar
Take forty dollar paid to you, leave the original 40 dollar bet

Wager $40
Leave forty dollar paid-out to you for a total wager of eighty dollar

Bet eighty dollar
Take $80 paid to you, leave the first eighty dollar bet

Bet eighty dollar
Leave $80 paid to you for a total wager of 160 dollar

Wager one hundred and sixty dollar
Take 160 dollar paid to you, leave the first one hundred and 60 dollar bet

If you departed at this instance you would be up $315 !!

It’s herculean to go on a run this long, but it can happen. And when it does you can’t alter and lower your bet or the end result won’t be the same.
